Bioinformatics Algorithms: Design and Implementation in Python
provides a comprehensive book on many of the most important
bioinformatics problems, putting forward the best algorithms and showing
how to implement them. The book focuses on the use of the Python
programming language and its algorithms, which is quickly becoming the
most popular language in the bioinformatics field. Readers will find the
tools they need to improve their knowledge and skills with regard to
algorithm development and implementation, and will also uncover
prototypes of bioinformatics applications that demonstrate the main
principles underlying real world applications.
